source()of inspiration for designers.says Amanda Hill,chief creative officer at A+E Networks,a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion(尚)shos.Earlier this year,the China Through A Looking Glass erhibition in New York erhibited 140 pieces of China-inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art,with the aim of exploring the influence ofChinese aesthetics()on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination forcenturies.The exhibition had record attendance,showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences."China is impossible to overlook,says Hill."Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaignsthat sell dreams to women all over the world,which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion第1页/共11页夸克学习有夸克就有解by China-some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese."Vera Wang,AleranderWang,Jason Wu are taking on Galliano,Albaz,Mare Jacobs-and beating them hands down in design andsales,adds Hill.For Hill,it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion."The mostfamous designers are Chinese,so are the models,and so are the consumers,she says."China is nolonger just another market;in many senses it has become the market.If you talk about fashion today.youare talking about China-its influences,its direction,its breathtaking clothes,and how young designers andmodels are finally acknowledging that in many ways."3.(8)Before the 1830s,most newspapers were sold through annual subscriptions in America,usually $8 to10 a year.Today $8 or s 10 seems a small amount of money,but at that time these amounts wereforbidding to most citizens.Accordingly,newspapers were read almost only by rich people in politics or thetrades.In addition,most newspapers had little in them that would appeal to a mass audience.They weredull and visually forbidding.But the revolution that was taking place in the 1830s would change all that.The trend,then,was toward the "penny paper"-a term referring to papers made widely available to thepublic.It meant any inexpensive newspaper:perhaps more importantly it meant newspapers that could bebought in single copies on the street.This development did not take place overnight.It had been possible(but not easy)to buy single copies ofcopy.Street sales were almost umknown.However,within a few years,street sales of newspapers would becommonplace in eastern cities.At first the price of single copies was seldom a penny-usually two or threecents was charged-and some of the older well-known papers charged five or sir cents.But the phrase "pennypaper"caught the public"s fancy,and soon there would be papers that did indeed sell for only a penny.This new trend of newspapers for "the man on the street"did not begin well.Some of the early ventures(were immediate failures.Publishers already in business,people who were owners of successful papers.hadlittle desire to change the tradition.It took a few youthful and daring businessmen to get the ball rolling.4.(8分）Monkeys seem to have a way with numbers.A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consisting ofnumbers and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward.The researchers then tested howthe monkeys combined-or added-the symbols to get the reward.Here"s how Harvard Medical School scientist Margaret Livingstone,who led the team,described theexperiment:In their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screens.On one part of the screen,asymbol would appear,and on the other side two symbols inside a circle were shown.For erample,thenumber 7 would flash on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8.If the monkeystouched the left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven drops of water or juice:if they went第2页/共11页夸克学习有夸克就有解for the circle,they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers-17 in this erample.After rumning hundreds of tests,the researchers noted that the monkeys would go for the higher values morethan half the time,indicating that they were performing a calculation,not just memorizing the value ofeach combination.When the team eramined the results of the erperiment more closely,they noticed that the monkeys tended tounderestimate()a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close in value-sometimes choosing.for erample,a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6.The underestimation was systematic:When adding twonumbers,the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two,and then added only a fraction()of the smaller number to it."This indicates that there is a certain way quantity is represented in their brains."Dr.Livingstone says."But in this experiment what they"re doing is paying more attention to the big number than the little one."完形填空1.(30)The small town of Rjukan in Norway is situated between several mountains and does not get directsunlight from
